It is said that thousands of years ago, the mount Kirin beast of Manjusri Bodhisattva mistakenly broke into Grandfather's residence and stole the fire pills in the blast furnace. Who knows that the unicorn beast is not good enough, causing his whole body to burn like a fire. He was afraid of being scolded by the Bodhisattva, so he rushed into the Golden Dragon Pool to save his life. Since then, the water in this pool has been hot all the year round, and nothing grows by the pool. Seeing this situation, Guanyin touched the unicorn beast and said, Is Kirin a thing in the pool? It will become a dragon when it encounters a storm. The unicorn beast was touched. One day when he saw the wind and cloud in the cave, he jumped into the cave and saw the golden light flash. The unicorn beast turned into a huge golden dragon and left. Since then, the pool has returned to normal, hence the name Fengyun Cave.

During Guangxu period of Qing Dynasty, there was a great drought in North China. There are many large and small holes in the ground. The people stationed near the mountain have nothing. In order to survive, young people leave their hometown to work or beg for food elsewhere. The same is true of dozens of families in Cherying. The young people left, leaving only some old people and women with children in the village, about twenty people.
Those young people who fled the country left some food at home before they left. But these grains were eaten up by old people, women and children. Pity these people, they are about to run out of food, and the villagers are very anxious. One of them, surnamed Liu, comforted everyone and said, "Don't worry, I still have some food at home." Liu Cungu and her husband have been married for several years, but they have no children. Both of them are diligent and her life is good. The couple planted a few acres of land, and the days were passable. Her husband also left the drought and left her some food before he left. As the saying goes, "sitting on an empty mountain", not long after, the 100 kilograms of grain left behind also fell by half.
In order to survive the famine, Liu Cungu went to the mountain to dig wild vegetables before dawn every day, and went down the mountain with a basket of wild vegetables after sunset. When I got home, I made a fire and cooked with several sisters, washed wild vegetables and made wild vegetable porridge for everyone to drink. After several days, Liu Cunjia was anxious to death, but she couldn't think of any good way at the moment.
On this day, she got up early again, because all the wild vegetables around the village were dug up, and she had to go to the mountains farther away to dig wild vegetables. She walked and walked. When she crossed a ridge, she fainted on the mountain road because of overwork and hunger. When she was awakened by the mountain wind, she felt that this was not the place where she had walked. She was lying in a soft, green field of wild vegetables, and the wild vegetables around her gave off a fragrant smell. Liu Cungu sat up with difficulty and said to himself, "God, where am I?" "You are in my wild vegetable field", a kind old man sat not far from her, and he just said this to her.
The old man has a black beard, but his head is bare. The old man said to her with a red face and a smile, "well, you can wake up." You have been working hard for the villagers for such a long time. You dig wild vegetables for the elderly and children and take out your own food for everyone to eat. What a kind woman! " Liu Cungu asked the old man strangely: "Who is your old man? How do you know everything about my village? " The old man smiled and said, "I have seen your business with the mountain god." Today, we will give you a gift. Try the wild vegetables around you. " Liu Cungu stood up and found himself lying in a green and delicious wild vegetable field. She casually took out a wild vegetable, which is a feather-like leaf with fine hairs on its stem. She put the leaves in her mouth and felt very sweet. If she only chews a few bites, she will feel full. She knelt down to the old man excitedly and said excitedly, "thank you, your gift is too timely." I thank you on behalf of the villagers. What is the name of this wild vegetable? "
The old man smiled and said, "This is called grass protection. I'll give you this wild vegetable field. From now on, you should never go over mountains to dig wild vegetables. " This kind of grass has the function of improving eyesight and benefiting stomach. With this vegetable field, you can survive the drought. "With that, the old man pulled out a handful of nursing grass, which magically grew in the ground at once. Liu Cungu asked happily, "Who are you, old man? The old man smiled and said, "The Jade Emperor asked me to be in charge of human herbs. You can guess who I am. "
After the old man said this, he disappeared. At this time, Liu Cungu realized that it was God who sent the medicine king to the world and the nursing grass to the world.
Legend of Shenquan
Nowadays, every day, many people go to Xianquan in Fenghuang Mountain with vats and vials to get water. It is said that the water here can cure diseases, prevent diseases and prolong life. It is also said that an old man surnamed Zhu lost his way in Fenghuangling 12 days, and did not eat or drink, which exceeded the normal state of the human body.
It is said that there is no water in Phoenix Mountain. It is really difficult for local people to drink water. There is a family living on the south slope of the observation deck. The man's surname is Lu and the woman's surname is Cui. They have an only daughter named Gu Xia. Lu is often away from home, just like a tourist. He is away from home all the year round, worshiping the Five Mountains and going to Wudang. It is said that he always wandered in the mountains, but rarely returned to Phoenix Ridge.
Dad is outside, so he can't stop his daughter from growing up. Gu Xia slowly grew to eighteen, and she had not seen what her father looked like. If my father doesn't come back, it won't stop my daughter from getting married. Introduced by the matchmaker, the girl married Li Youcai of Beishan. When she arrived in the Li family, she served her in-laws, respected her husband, cooked tea, washed clothes, and chose nothing. It's just that it's very difficult to drink water in this barren mountain and ridge. Every morning, you have to walk more than two miles to fetch water at the foot of the mountain. Carry a bucket of water and wait for an hour. Get up before dawn and come back. The sun is always high. Climbing a mountain is really difficult. I was not used to it at first, and neither was Gu Xia. As a daughter-in-law who goes through the door, she has to carry water even if she grits her teeth. Whether you eat, drink or wash, you can't do without water!
One day, when Lu came back from traveling in a cassock, he saw Gu Xia struggling to climb the steep slope with a load of water. It was a pity that he took a break in three steps and moved one step at a time. He hurried forward and said to Gu Xia, "When the rooster crows in the middle of the night tomorrow, you can dig in the ravine behind the house with a hoe, and I will bring you water to ensure that you don't have to worry about water use in the future." Gu Xia was stunned. It doesn't matter that she doesn't know this person. She thinks this man is a little strange. What he said, like nonsense, is the top priority of daily difficulties. When she got home, she didn't tell anyone. She just wants to try tomorrow. If water is convenient, isn't it a good thing? Even if this Taoist priest wronged someone, I have nothing to lose. Before going to bed, she kept thinking about it and couldn't sleep. When she fell asleep, she overslept.
When Gu Xia woke up, the rooster had crowed three times. At that time, she was flustered, and it was still not bright. She fumbled in her busy life, touched a long stick behind the door and took it to the ravine behind the house. It's easy to run there and stay underground for a while. Suddenly there was a loud noise, like a landslide, and a big hole appeared on the ground, and then a clear spring gushed out and rushed out. Lumou stood by the cave and said to Gu Xia, "I told you to bring a hoe when the rooster crowed three times, but you brought a stick after the rooster crowed three times. Originally, the water source was bigger, but if you don't listen to the order on time, the water can only be so big. This is also an act of god! "
Gu Xia panic, I don't know what to say, just asked 1; "Who is the teacher's father?" The Taoist priest replied: "Lu Zhenren." Then he jumped into the cave and disappeared. Since then, a clear spring, gurgling out, several springs, year after year. Gu Xia hurried home and told her family that they didn't believe her, so she followed Gu Xia out to see the water. Seeing the spring water flowing out, people began to drink water. People who have drunk it say that the water is good, clear and sweet, and refreshing. Gu Xia's father-in-law said it was really a fairy spring. Let's call it "Xianquan" from now on! This kind of "fairy spring" will not freeze even in winter, but in summer, if you put your finger into the spring and can't hold on for three minutes, your finger will feel terrible immediately, and there is a saying that "a hero can't drink three mouthfuls of water".
It is said that if you can't do good things after drinking the water from "Xianquan", you can't do it. A hunter with a musket came here to drink water and saw an old man with a white beard sitting on a bluestone board beside the spring. The hunter took a few steps and asked the old man for a cigarette. Nearly a few steps away, he saw the old man stand up and beat the dirt on his trousers, and then walked deep into the valley. As deep as a hundred feet, cattle and sheep are timid. If the old man walks on the ground, there are steps everywhere, and the flowers and plants automatically separate, which can't help but scare the hunters. He thinks this man is strange and suspicious. He habitually raised his gun and pulled the trigger, but it didn't ring. Deduct it again, but it still doesn't ring; The third time I pulled the trigger again, I heard a bang, the barrel burst and the hunter's hands and face were covered with blood. He squatted by the spring and wiped his face, thinking, this is really evil! Never dare to stay long again, and hurried down the mountain. He just bowed his head and walked down the hill as if there was a man in front, but he didn't expect to meet the old man with white beard again. The old man said to him, "Do you smoke? I have a fire. " How dare hunters look at the old man in the face? What he can't say in his heart is chaos. He just wanted to get down the mountain quickly and said that he would never hunt again.
Cowherd Cave and Goddess Stone
The sky is fine, and this is where God and Buddha stay. There are fairies in the sky, too Those young women have lived in a quiet environment for many years, and they are always unaccustomed to it. They yearn for the world and hear that there are many beautiful, interesting and delicious things in the world, which is very attractive to them. Legend has it that there are nine fairies in the sky. They paint, serve wine, weave silk, play the piano, serve flowers, embroider, dress up, make clothes and dance with them. Such nine fairies, unable to bear the loneliness of the Heavenly Palace, floated down. They want to land in a busy city, but because they are too excited to talk, they can't stand still for a while and come to the mountain of Phoenix Ridge. A fairy said, "It's quiet and deserted here. It's not too late for us to take a bath and go where we want to go. " Her proposal was approved by all the sisters, so she took off her veil shirt and went to Jiunvgang for a bath.
In addition, there is a sacred cow peak in Lingnan and a cave halfway up the mountain. People call it "Cowherd Cave", where a cowherd lives. The young man lost his mother at an early age and raised his father alone. His father suffers from hemiplegia. Although he can barely walk a few steps, he must be taken care of to eat and drink. After seven years of this life, the old man died, and his family was too poor to buy a mat. It was really impossible to bury him, so he had to borrow some money from the owner of the cow. At that time, he said that if he didn't have the strength to pay back the money in the future, he would be a slave for his master all his life to pay off his debts.
The cows released by the Cowherd are not simple, and one of them is a magical cow rode by Lv Zu Lv Dongbin. When Lv Dongbin came to Lvzu Cave, he put the cows in a cave next to the temple to rest, and then went into the cave to practice. After a while, the Jade Emperor ordered Lv Dongbin to take the cloud in the northwest corner to the sky quickly. At that time, the cow fell asleep in the cave and didn't go to heaven. In the future, this magical cow will join the cowherd. This cow is very human. It knows that Cowherd is a dutiful son, but he is too poor to get a wife. A man can't be a bachelor all his life, so he gave Cowherd a heart. God cow woke up to take a nap, suddenly on a whim, secretly contemplating the nine fairies to take a bath in the nine women's tanks. There's a chance. I usually want to help the cowherd, but today I want to realize it. He came to Cowherd Cave and found Cowherd taking a nap. God Niu Yi turned around and woke him up. Tell him to go to Jiunvgang and run away with a fairy dress. If you hesitate, it will be too late for you to regret. Cowherd asked, "Why do you want me to hold a dress?" The cow said, "Silly boy, this is a good thing." Listen to me. Let's go. If we miss the opportunity, we won't have it. "Cowherd didn't ask any questions. He knew that the bull would not let him ride blindly. He spread his feet and ran in the direction of Jiunvgang, only to see all kinds of colorful clothes scattered on the boulder. Cowherd didn't know which one to take, so he took a fancy to a light yellow dress, grabbed it and ran away.
Nine fairies were taking a bath when suddenly someone walked past them. She said, "No, someone!" The fairies stopped laughing at once and were busy looking for their clothes. Eight fairies found their clothes, took them off and suddenly disappeared. Only the Weaver Girl can't find it. When she was worried, she heard a cow barking. She looked for a while, but there was no sign of the cow. She only heard the cow's head jar voice say, "Your clothes are behind your back. "When the Weaver Girl turned around, she really had her own clothes. When she got dressed, she saw a cowherd coming towards her.
Cowherd said, "You are frightened! It was a genius idea for me to take your clothes. It has no other meaning. I hope you can stay and live with me. " The Weaver Girl looked at the Cowherd. Although she is wearing old clothes, she looks very handsome. Listen to him, don't sweet talk. She hasn't spoken for a long time. Niulang continued to introduce himself: "I can't force you. I am poor, so poor that I have nothing, and I owe my father a foreign debt." If you think I am poor, you can leave now. There are many people stronger and richer than me. Although I am poor, my heart will always be towards you. My friend is a genius and is willing to help us. "The weaver girl standing by lost her sister and companion, but the cowherd in front of her is really a good man. She thought, it is impossible to go back to heaven, so let's form a family with Cowherd.
Since then, the Cowherd has been out herding cattle every day, while the Weaver Girl has been weaving silk at home. The money from silk weaving paid off the foreign debt in advance. Their lives are also very comfortable.
Just in front of the Cowherd Cave, there lived a family whose father's name was Wang Ba and his son's name was Wang Diao. He is a vagrant. When he heard that Cowherd had married a beautiful daughter-in-law, he was greedy. On this day, I borrowed some alcohol, called two gangsters, broke into the Cowherd Cave and snatched the Weaver Girl who was knitting silk. He left people in the house, locked the door and prepared to marry the bride. The weaver girl was very anxious and tried to escape. She looked carefully and found a small hole under the wall, so she knocked off some bricks gently. With her thin body, she climbed out of the hole and ran away. Before he ran far, Wang Diao found him and chased him desperately. The weaver girl ran to the top of the mountain in despair. Seeing Wang Diao getting closer and closer, she settled down, gritted her teeth and jumped off the cliff. Wang Diao saw the Weaver Girl fall to her death and went home in frustration. Soon, he was seriously ill and died. The cowherd released the cattle, but the weaver girl disappeared, shouting everywhere and missing. He was tired and sleepy, his eyes were blurred, and he fell asleep sitting by the hole. In his sleep, he suddenly saw the Weaver Girl coming towards him. Cowherd was about to ask where she had gone. Weaver girl's appearance was smeared again, and she turned and left. No matter what the cowherd calls, the Weaver Girl just doesn't look back. After a long walk, suddenly the Weaver Girl turned around and pointed to a huge stone, as if to say: This is me! Cowherd woke up in shock. He walked along the road he remembered in his dream and found the boulder. The soul of the weaver girl quietly dived into this stone, which is the "Goddess Stone" we see today.
Li: The Legend of Boiling Fish Ditch
In the middle line scenic spot of Fenghuangling Park, Longquan Temple is more than a mile to the west, and there is a deep canyon running north and south. On both sides of the canyon, the peaks are steep and steep, and the shrubs are lush; The top of the towering stone wall is shrouded in clouds, and the goshawk hovers from time to time. The canyon is nearly three miles long, with lush trees, wild flowers everywhere, rugged rocks and gurgling streams. Being in it is like entering a fairyland on earth.
As the saying goes, "Where there is water, there are fish", but it doesn't work here. Although this canyon is full of springs and streams, there are no fish in the water. Strangely, in other canyons near this canyon, there are streams and pools where fish play and swim. But there are no fish in this valley. For this reason, the villagers have always called this canyon "boiling fish ditch".
Speaking of "boiled fish ditch", there is also a legend circulating among the people.
According to legend, during the Dading period in Jin Shizong, Taoist Wang Zhongyang Daxian and his disciple Ma Yu practiced in the Fairy Cave in Fenghuang Mountain. Jin Shizong had long heard that Wang could refine the elixir of life and eat it to live forever. So, he came from Beijing specially, sent a lot of gold and silver treasures to visit the king, and begged the king to refine the elixir for him.
Wang Zhongyang Daxian lived in seclusion in Shan Ye for many years and was not interested in secular affairs. However, Jin Shizong, the emperor at that time, begged, but after all kinds of refusals, he had to agree.
On this day, Wang and his disciple Ma Yu came to this canyon. Because the mountains are steep, the valleys are deep and the streams are quiet, it is an excellent place to refine the elixir. The king ordered disciple Ma Yu to set up a gossip furnace by the stream, read the mantra, light the five elements of true fire, and start an alchemy.
Who knows that Wang's blast furnace has just opened, and Liu Zhenren, an old fairy friend who lives in seclusion in the nearby "Taoyuan View", came here and invited Wang to go out to play. Wang calculated it only once, and it was still a long time before the 998 1 year elixir went on the market. He readily agreed and told disciple Ma Yu to take good care of the blast furnace.
After Wang and Liu Zhenren wandered around, disciple Ma Yu stayed by the blast furnace every day, taking good care of the blast furnace and mastering the fire. Just a few days before the release of the elixir, one night, there was a strong wind, sand and stones flying and the earth shook. Suddenly, a big tree was uprooted and crashed to the ground, which happened to knock over the blast furnace. In a short time, the real fire in the furnace and the boiling Dan medicine juice being refined were poured into a nearby stream. Suddenly, the streams in the whole canyon were steaming and boiling from top to bottom. In an instant, all the fish in the stream were boiled to death. ……
Disciple Ma Yu suddenly sat on the ground and lamented when he saw this.
A few days later, Wang Zhongyang Daxianyun swam back. As soon as he entered the valley, he felt something was wrong. Because he saw that the water level of the stream in the valley was obviously much lower than before his trip, and there were many cooked and cooked dead fish floating in the stream, which gave off a pungent smell. ……
Disciple Ma Yu quickly fell to his knees when he saw Master coming back, and told her exactly what happened the other day. Hearing this, Wang Zhongyang Daxian stroked his beard and said thoughtfully, "I wish I hadn't traveled. Anyway, it seems that the old son of the current emperor has not enjoyed this elixir, which is really an act of god! Get up, disciple, it's not your fault! " Say that finish, he stepped forward to help disciple Ma Yu. The master and apprentice immediately packed their bags and left the valley, flew away and traveled around. ……
Since then, there have been no more fish in the water of this valley. Therefore, locals call it "boiling fish ditch". The people all said, "All the fish in the boiled fish ditch have been boiled to death, and the fish in other ravines dare not settle down in the boiled fish ditch for fear of being boiled to death!" ..... pay attention to the red leaves.
